Never going to end is it, and its not just this city the country in general is absolutely ruined
Yeah, been helicopters over head this afternoon.
I was wondering why they were up in one spot for so long, seemed to be above the Arches industrial estate area.

The victim was Somali, apparently. This all conjecture though, haven't heard anything official.
The police appear to have left the scene and the cordon removed.
Yeah because I’m sure if he had a youth club to go to it would never have happened - unbelievable
Edit to say if it wasnt that serious what was with the helicopter?
You sound like a NRA fanboy.
It was monitoring a bike ride, had nothing to do with Spon End.
One witness is adamant she heard two gunshots. I live extremely close and heard nothing. First I knew was when I saw an ambulance and paramedic car coming down the road. Then a huge crowd of spectators congregated on the bridge over the Sherbourne.
No it's in Hope Street opposite the former technical college:Is that the one just off the Allesley old road by the block of flats opposite the old dyers arms?

That’s good news and I would have thought incredibly lucky if he was shot in the back of the head.Telegraph reporting injuries not life threatening or life changing, at least that's something.
...I sometimes wonder if the demand for drugs from wealthy/creative proffessionals makes drug gang crimes more likely ???
Bang on

Fucking scum. Hope they get find them and throw away the key. So much wrong here, shooting, the age of the victim, the location they did it. Utter utter scum.
Eh. I mean prohibition unnecessarily hands power to these gangs, but I’d be surprised if a 15 year old is at all high up in the drug trade to be dealing to high end professionals.
Phrasing.
I had to laugh the other day. Little rat who was probably no older than 14, sat in Bournemouth Gardens, surrounded by about 4 or 5 mates.
He was counting loads of £10 notes out of one of them bum bags they wear around their necks. In broad daylight, full view of the public. Zero fucks given.
I sat with one of those sort of bum boys in a maths lesson once. He told me he didn’t need school cos he was gonna sell weed innit.
We sat and worked out his costs and revenue. Based off his figures he stood to earn £4/hr. I told him he’d be better off in McDonalds. Thing is he didn’t accept it cos “the baddest man on the estate deals and he has a wicked car”. I asked why is he still on the estate if he’s doing so well.
What kids don’t see is that the margins are tiny. You’re buying an ounce at £160 then trying sell 1.4g ten bags to scrotes for a profit of £40 and a shit ton of work and risk. If you aren’t growing or dealing in kilos you aren’t making serious cash. Most end up in coke because of that, but fewer customers and more entrenched competition make that hard as well.
